Warning! Misleading Edition!

I just bought the book Philosophy of Karl Marx, which according to the back cover includes the important philosophical texts of the German philosopher and economist. If I had known I would have thought twice before buying. There is no question in this edition complete books but only extracts from such books. I'll do list, below the real content of this collection of 686 pages:

- English Composition (1835):
* Meditation of a young person before choosing a profession.

- Silver, State, Proletariat (1843-1844):
* A 1843 match
* About the Jewish question
* For a critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right. Introduction
* Critical Glosses ... against Arnold Ruge.

- Economics and Philosophy (Paris Manuscripts of 1844): Only careful excerpts of these manuscripts are presented here. I would say that only a third of the manuscripts are reproduced.
The complete edition of the three manuscripts exist pocket book published by GF Flammarion.

- From the Abolition of the State to the constitution of human society (Notes and theses 1845):
* Construction of Hegelian philosophy
* Towards the abolition of the state and of bourgeois society
* Ad Feuerbach (Theses on Feuerbach)
* Division of labor and ideology

- The Holy Family or critical criticism critique against Bruno Bauer and others (1845): Watch here as only a fraction of the book "The Holy Family" is reproduced. This is actually 3 extracts located in the sixth part of the book are:
* The "Spirit" and "Mass"
* Critical Battle against the French Revolution
* Critical Battle against French materialism
The oldest and most complete editions exist social Editions but are hard to find today.

German -L'Idéologie (1845-1846). Attention here also, it is not the complete book but only the first part on Feuerbach and the materialist theory. The complete book is published by the Social Editions in 1976 621 pages. Here, only the first 100 pages are reproduced.

- The Communist Manifesto (1848), reproduced in full.

- General Introduction to the Critique of Political Economy (1857)
- Foreword of the Critique of Political Economy (1859)

- Preface to the first edition of Capital (1867)
- Excerpts from the afterword to the second edition of Capital (1873)

As you see, there are many extracts in this collection but few full texts, which of course does not detract from the quality of about Marx. That said the publisher could have been honest and clear on the cover rather than mislead readers.
